When Fang Nan heard the news and rushed over, he saw Xie He sitting outside the morgue of the hospital, his figure was lonely, as if he was the only one left in the whole world... However, his calm and steady expression was not as messy as it was messy. In stark contrast to his appearance, he didn't seem too sad.
Fang Nan was a little worried at first, but he was finally relieved when he saw this... It seems that Mr. Xie should be fine.
That's right, after all, he has already died so many ex-boyfriends, and it's no big deal to die another one. In fact, Mr. Lu has been the one who has persisted the longest, right
It's not easy to die now...
Fang Nan didn't know Lu Ting well. Although he felt a little regretful, he wouldn't lose his composure. He respectfully said to Xie He, "Mr. Xie, you should go back first, I'll just handle the matter here."
He often helps Xie He deal with his ex-boyfriend's funeral, and he is already familiar with it.
Xie He shook his head, his black eyes were bottomless, and he said slowly: "This time I will handle it myself."
Fang Nan was stunned for a moment. He listened to Xie He's calm voice and looked at his silent expression. For a moment, he felt a palpitation in his heart. It seemed that there was some kind of strong sadness coming... But when he looked again, he couldn't find it. Xie He's expression is different from before.
Probably... just his illusion
Xie He turned his eyes and ordered lightly: "You go to the hospital to make a handover, I'm going to take Lu Ting back."
Fang Nan was so excited that he didn't dare to ask any more questions. He hurriedly went to work. He was very efficient and quickly completed the handover procedures. Then he arranged for a car to come and brought Xie He and Lu Ting's corpses back together.
It's a little far away from Xie He's city, and when I went back, it was already early in the morning the next day.
Xie He had no intention of resting at all, and began to arrange all funeral arrangements non-stop.
Fang Nan began to feel that something was wrong. Xie He never intervened in any ex-boyfriend's funeral before, and it was his best to arrange for him to deal with it. He never even bothered to take a look, let alone attend the funeral .
But this time, Xie He took care of all the affairs himself, not at all under the hands of the staff, as if... he was really dealing with his lover's funeral.
Fang Nan suddenly felt that this is normal...
This is what a normal person would do, and Xie He's behavior in the past made them almost forget that those who died were once Xie He's boyfriend, or even close lover's pillow, Xie He's performance It never seemed like a person with normal feelings, so cold and ruthless that it was terrifying.
Only this time, Xie He treated him like his lover, but it happened like this... It made Fang Nan a little sad, he would rather Xie He be like before.
A person who has experienced the death of a loved one dozens of times can be indifferent, but as long as he fails to do so once, it is probably the result of a lifetime of pain.
Even Xie He didn't look so sad.
The corpse can't be kept for too long, Xie He took care of everything in a few days.
The weather on the day of the funeral was fine, the sun was shining brightly, and the sky was as blue as washing. It should be a sad day, but God didn't seem to cooperate.
Because Xie He personally attended and paid attention to the reason, many people came to the funeral on the day of the funeral. Unexpectedly, I am very sorry.
Mr. Zhao and others also came. Not long ago, the two of them were very affectionate, but in the blink of an eye, the world was separated forever, and their moods were a little complicated... But thinking about it carefully, it seemed to be a matter of course.
Didn't Mr. Xie's former boyfriends all die unexpectedly? It's just that Lu Ting lived too long, and their relationship is so good, they even forgot about this terrible death curse for a while, thinking that they could just go on like this...
But in the end, the result won't change.
As Xie He's old friend, Mr. Zhao has seen this kind of situation a lot, but this is the first time he has come to Xie He's boyfriend's funeral. If it weren't for Lu Ting's identity and Xie He's attitude, he would definitely not be happy. will come.
At this time, let's comfort Xie He, right? Mr. Zhao thought.
Xie He was wearing a black suit, standing there expressionless, as if he was independent from this world... Mr. Zhao walked over and patted Xie He on the shoulder, smiling and ready to say don't be sad, I will introduce you to a new boyfriend .
But the moment Xie He turned his head, Mr. Zhao met his bottomless eyes, and suddenly felt a choke in his throat, and finally held back for a long time, only spit out four words: "Sorrow and change."
Xie He nodded and said lightly: "Thank you."
Mr. Zhao quickly backed away and slapped his face. He felt that he was a little strange just now. He had experienced many such things. He didn't know how many times he had introduced his boyfriend to Xie He, but this time he said no. Export, the first time I can't say that kind of words...
Probably... He couldn't say that to someone who was still grieving alone, it would be disrespectful.
But does Xie He really love Lu Ting? Is he really... sad? This kind of thinking makes Mr. Zhao feel a little unbelievable. He always thinks that Xie He will never feel sad for anyone.
But it's not... Maybe it's just that he hasn't met that person yet, or maybe he just never let people see his sad and weak side.
So that after a long time, everyone felt that he would not be sad.
They all felt that his ruthlessness was so natural.
Xie He walked forward slowly, his eyelashes drooping, he reached out and stroked the edge of the coffin, and took a deep look at the people inside.
Lu Ting closed his eyes, because of the reasons he had sorted out, he seemed to be just asleep... Xie He pursed his lips slightly, you already knew all this, didn't you? From the moment you decided to come back, you designed the ending for yourself.
I know that you didn't want me to be sad, so you pretended not to love me... But I want you to give me the right to choose, because this life and death choice, I can't be selfish and let you bear all the pain alone, because I want to take my responsibility.
It's up to me, to make the choice myself.
Xie He closed his eyes, asked someone to cover the coffin, and then watched without blinking, watching the coffin being buried, watching the soil covering it, watching the line of sight being gradually blocked...
He stood there for a long time without moving.
Fang Nan was standing not far away, sweating profusely from the sun, but he didn't dare to go forward.
Seeing that everyone else had left, he hesitated for a long time, thinking whether to call Xie He, when he saw Xie He turn around, Fang Nan breathed a sigh of relief, his boss looked normal now .
Xie He Fangnan said: "Don't worry, I'm fine."
Fang Nan thought how could he not be worried, this is the first time you have attended your boyfriend's funeral, but after all he doesn't want to meddle in his boss' affairs, so he just decided to pay attention and said: "That's good, thank you Mr. Just ask for anything."
Xie He smiled, "Okay."
…………………
The next day, the company held an emergency meeting. Several vice presidents were sitting in the conference room in a state of desperation. There was a problem with a large project invested by the company. The company invested a large amount of money in order to participate in a country's oil exploration plan for many years. And manpower and material resources, but now due to the unexpected change of the local government, the work has been completely shut down, and even the ownership may be affected... They have not yet recovered the cost. Once the entire project is abolished, it will cause a very huge blow to the company.
Several vice presidents got angry anxiously, and expressed that they wanted to find Xie He, but they couldn't get through the phone.
A vice president said: "Why doesn't Mr. Xie answer the phone? Isn't it because an ex-boyfriend died? As for?"
Another vice president said: "I don't understand either. It's not the first time he died of his ex-boyfriend."
"I went to his house to look for him. It's time like this. I still have the mood to play missing. This is not Mr. Xie's style."
Fang Nan stood at the door of the meeting room. He was not qualified to intervene, and the situation was indeed urgent... But he couldn't help but think of Xie He's lonely back standing in front of the tombstone yesterday, so he suddenly plucked up the courage to block the door of the meeting room. Said: "Mr. Xie must have his own plans, we'd better not bother him."
The vice president raised his eyebrows: "Get out of the way."
Cold sweat dripped down Fang Nan's forehead, thinking that he would be fired at worst. He was Xie He's assistant, so of course he had to share his worries.
Mr. Xie never made people worry. Since he didn't answer the phone, there must be a reason for not answering the phone. He couldn't let these people quarrel with him.
However, Fang Nan was alone, and he was not too tall, so he couldn't stop those vice presidents with beer bellies, and he was about to be pushed away.
At this moment, a slightly indifferent stern voice sounded behind him, "What's going on?"
Those vice presidents were still very angry at first, and all of them had bad faces. When they saw Xie He coming, their expressions immediately became respectful, and they smiled and said: "It's nothing... We are going to talk to you about something."
Xie He nodded and said: "I already know about this matter, I talked to the other side on the phone, you don't have to worry."
The vice president was still worried, and said, "But the situation over there is not optimistic."
Xie He glanced at him lightly, his tone was low but there was an unquestionable taste, which made it impossible to refute, but he was inexplicably at ease, "It's nothing more than a profit reason, as long as enough benefits are given, it can always be resolved."
Several vice presidents saw that Xie He was as calm as ever, without any panic, and calmed down in their hearts, and said with a smile: "Boss Xie is right."
Xie He just smiled slightly: "You go back first, I know what to do."
Seeing Xie He's confident appearance, and knowing that he might be in a bad mood right now, they all said goodbye tactfully.
Xie He sent those people away with a few words before returning to his office.
Fang Nan followed behind Xie He step by step, his expression hesitant to speak.
Xie He looked at him and smiled softly: "Do you think I won't come here today?"
Fang Nan hesitated a little, then nodded.
He secretly compared it, and felt that if his wife died, the sky would fall and he would not be in the mood to go to work, but Xie He came the next day... still thinking clearly and calmly, speaking and doing things in an orderly manner, it seemed that he was not affected at all.
He was a little confused again, is Xie He really sad for Lu Ting
Xie He sat at his desk, flipped through the important documents, and suddenly raised his head and said to Fang Nan: "Actually, I'm not sure either."
Fang Nan froze for a moment, "What?"
Xie He's eyes were dark, and he said slowly: "I'm not sure whether that project can really tide over the difficulties."
Fang Nan was startled immediately, and stammered, "Then, why did you say that just now?"
Xie He's tone was light and fluctuating, "I talked with the other side, and there is still room for change, but no one can guarantee such things as changes in the current situation. Any small error may cause completely different results. There is no guarantee that it will be 100% successful. It's just that I can try my best to minimize the chance of failure, but even so... I can't be sure."
"In business, you are always facing risks. There has never been an investment in this world that is sure to make a profit."
"When I made the decision, I imagined all the unexpected possibilities of failure. You may succeed or you may fail... You will lose everything."
Fang Nan showed a thoughtful expression. Everyone knew this truth. There is no business that is guaranteed to make money without losing money, and there is no such thing as 100% success.
But Xie He has always done a good job. Under his leadership, the company seems to have never encountered a real failure. Even if there is a temporary loss, it will eventually earn back ten times and a hundred times...so that as long as Xie He is still there , Everyone feels that there is no difficulty that cannot be overcome.
And Xie He never showed his weak side. He has always been calm and rational. When everyone is anxious, as long as Xie He is there, everyone can't help but feel at ease, thinking that he can rely on trust.
He's always had that reassuring, anchoring role.
This is... Xie He said for the first time that he was also uncertain.
Is this business really so difficult that Xie He is not sure
Xie He was silent for a moment, Fang Nan said: "You go, I want to be alone for a while."
Fang Nan went out quickly and closed the door for Xie He.
Xie He sat there without moving for a long time. He closed his eyes, then took the calendar on the table, and used a marker pen to outline it heavily. Today is the eighth day of Lu Ting's death.
And he hasn't waited for what he wants to wait for.
He knew he would wait sooner or later...but maybe by the time he did, it would be too late.
He knows that Lu Ting's souls are still in those worlds, but he doesn't know whether those worlds have been recovered by the main god. He will spare no effort to help him delay time and protect Lu Ting's main soul, but he doesn't know how long 666 can delay, he is still small in front of the main god.
This is a race against time and death...
But he can't do anything, the only thing he can do is wait.
So, he's not sure.
Yep...he has his moments of uncertainty too.
No business can make a steady profit. When you throw away all your weight, you may win everything back, or you may lose everything.
If you lose, you can start over, but what you lose is completely lost.
No matter what you do, you may never get it back.
…………………
Xie He continued to work as if nothing had happened, and did not return home until night.
The house is deserted, without the enthusiastic Lu Ting who always follows him, and there is no noisy 444, just like many years ago, he is the only one.
He has been living alone, and he feels that it doesn't matter, anyway, he has nothing else to care about...
But people are always greedy. Once they have it, they will feel unwilling when they lose it.
will not get used to it.
Xie He came to the second floor, and when he passed the study, he paused for a moment, then walked in.
He opened the safe under the bookcase, and the safe containing the photo album was empty at some point, only one photo album was left in it, and the other 12 were gone.
Xie He took out the photo album marked with 1, opened it slowly, and looked at it with a smile on his lips.
Ah, what a jealous... Before leaving, he still thought about destroying those photo albums.
In fact, there is no need at all, I have never cared about those people.
What he left behind is nothing more than a reminder to himself, what kind of world do you exist in, don't be muddled, don't accept fate, don't fail, don't give up...
Only this book is the only one he remembers.
But he almost never opened it.
Because what you really want to miss always doesn't seem so easy.
Xie He's fingertips flicked over the photos on the album. After a long time, he closed it again and said softly: "If you can't come back, I may not love you anymore."
Because I will not love someone who will never come back.
…………………
Two days later, Xie He woke up from his bed as usual, but there was no 444 greeting him, saying that the host is awake... There was no warm embrace to hold him, no one who exhausted all his love kiss him.
He was left with only himself, and he didn't forget for a moment that he... gave up everything important for himself.
Even if one day, he finally has everything, he will never forget the cold decision he once made.
Xie He sat up from the bed, stretched his arms and put on his shirt, then went to the bathroom, washed his face, and tidied his collar. The man in the mirror was handsome, with phoenix eyes and thin lips, which made him look a little cold.
Xie He hooked the corner of his lips, showing a faint self-deprecating arc.
Today is the tenth day...
Lord God, how long are you going to procrastinate? I really don't want to see me, but there is a time limit if I don't want to see you anymore...
Xie He turned around and walked out of the bathroom, took his coat and put it on, and was about to go back to work in the company. There have been many things going on recently.
But when he just walked down the stairs, a familiar electronic sound suddenly sounded in his head.
The cold electronic sound rang in his mind, and Xie He stopped suddenly for a moment, and the whole person did not move.
[Ding, please choose the world you want to stay in.]
Xie He narrowed his eyes slightly, revealing a cold light.
[Xie He: I refuse.]
[Ding, please choose the world you want to stay in.]
[Xie He: I refuse.]
[Ding, please choose the world you want to stay in.]
[Xie He: I refuse.]
After doing this three times, the electronic sound finally changed.
[Ding, since you refused to choose the world to stay in, the system will be bound for you soon, and you will become a host to complete tasks across other worlds.]
[System downloading... Downloading... Please wait...]
[The system is downloaded and loading...]
[System loading...]
[The system is loaded, and the No. 444 system will serve you wholeheartedly.]
The next moment, the familiar voice of yelling rang in Xie He's mind.
[444: Whoa whoa whoa, I miss you so much, host, I thought I would never see you again/(ㄒoㄒ)/~~]
[Xie He: I said I would not want you.]
[444: Whoa, whoa, how did you know I could come back? I was forced to uninstall it! QAQ]
[Xie He: Do you still remember the introduction of the detachment potion? Using the transcendence potion, you can stop traveling and choose a world to stay in, but if you refuse to choose a world to stay in, it means that you will still become the host and bind the system again.]Since he used the transcendence potion, he has been waiting for the main god's prompt, but he waited for ten days.
[444: Σ(° △°|||)︴It seems to be the truth, but if this is the case, why bother? You are the host...]
[Xie He: Hehe, baby, you don't understand.]
[444: ...] The host is too troublesome and unwilling to explain to him, but he dare not ask, he must be obedient when he finally comes back! Never make the host very angry again! QAQ
Xie He smiled lightly, he never planned to stay in one world to die, if that was the case, why did he bother to persist
What he wants is to get rid of the identity of the attacked person and become a real independent host. Only in this way can he completely get rid of the shackles... and to become stronger, he must bind the system and continue to travel.
As long as he refuses to stay, the Lord God is limited to the rules and must re-bind the system for him, and probably will not change the system for him, and will return the useless 444 to him.
This is the main god, a completely cold data, if it is a person with subjective feelings, Xie He's plan will be nothing.
[Xie He: Have you received any news from 666 recently?]
[444: No, there was no news about 666 ten days ago, and I don't know where he is. Why did the host ask 666?]Actually, 444 was also very worried about 666, all the messages he sent fell to nothing.
Xie He's heart sank slowly, and he clenched his hand hanging by his side. Could it be... Didn't Lu Ting make any arrangements in advance? Did he guess wrong
no, I can not…
[444: Hey, wait! I just received a 666 letter, it seems to be set to be sent regularly, wait for me to check.]
Several minutes passed.
[444: Wow wow wow wow /(ㄒo ㄒ)/~~]
[Xie He: What content?]
[444: Uwah, 666 is dying, dying! ! !]So sad QAQ
Xie He pursed his lips and his voice sank.
[Xie He: Don't cry, tell me the contents of his letter carefully!]
444 Seeing that Xie He suddenly became strict, he immediately stopped crying in fright.
[444: The 666 letter said that if I receive this letter, it means that he will be wiped out together with his host, and once his host is completely wiped out, he will also be returned to the factory for reset. For our system, returning to the factory and resetting is equivalent to death, even if it comes out again, it is not the original 666, he, he also sent me... all his private money along with the letter... QAQ]
Xie He let out a breath slowly: "How much is the private money?"
[444: Let me see... God, God! 1000000? ! 1 million pocket money!]He has become a rich man! But I’m not happy, 666 can’t come back, and I gave him all my money QAQ
[Xie He: Give me the 1 million.]
[444:...]
[Xie He: What? Baby, didn't you say that as long as you can come back, you don't even need pocket money? Did you lie to me?]
[444: No, I didn't mean that...]
[Xie He: Give it to me.]
444 thought about it, although he was very reluctant to part with the 1 million pocket money that 666 gave him, but... in order to stay with the host, let's give the money...
Xie He turned around and went up to the second floor again.
He came to the study room, opened the safe, took out the only remaining photo album, reached out and gently stroked the cover, and then slowly opened it, as if opening something of great weight, so that he His hands were trembling slightly.
[444: The host is big... what are you doing?]Lu Ting is dead...
Xie He took a deep breath, and there was a cold light in his eyes. If you look carefully, there is even a trace of nervousness that you have never had before. He slowly said: "In the system store, there are 653,287 special products, and there is a This product is called a 'follower'. As long as you spend 1 million, you can exchange for a 'follower'. The exchange of a 'follower' must be done willingly by the other party, because from then on, that person will be with you Life sharing, life and death are all up to you, the master controls his life and death, the master can even absorb his life force when he is seriously injured, and when the master dies, he will die at the same time. So... very few people are willing to be someone else 'followers'."
444 checked quickly, and sure enough, among the more than 600,000 special products, he found a product named 'Followers'.
[444 exclaimed: Really, the host, you actually discovered this, my God! ] Most of the hosts remember this kind of humble commodity, and it is just worth 1 million. Could it be that the host intends to exchange it for a 'follower'
[Xie He: Now exchange me for a 'follower' - Lu Ting.]
444 is very surprised! But he didn't dare to question Xie He's order, and quickly exchanged the product for Xie He.
Xie He's fingers were tightly pinching the edge of the album, his knuckles were so hard that they turned white. Although his expression was calm, his heart was not calm, because he didn't know... Whether this method would be successful, he was not sure , whether I still have time.
But... He is willing to try once with hope.
From the time he knew that Lu Ting asked 666 to send 444 one million experience points, he knew that Lu Ting thought the same as him. This was the only way Lu Ting left for himself, waiting for him to revive him.
Lu Ting believed in him, believed that he could think of this... and he also believed in Lu Ting, that Lu Ting would not leave him.
Although they never spoke, they trusted each other.
Xie He didn't dare to close his eyes, one minute, two minutes... In the past, there was no change in front of his eyes, and no one appeared...
His hands are trembling slightly, you won't let me down, right
Xie He has never felt that every minute and every second is so difficult for a moment.
Because every minute and every second goes by...
All indicate that failure is one step closer to him.
Finally, at the ninth minute, Xie He saw a faint ray of light appear in front of him. The light became brighter and brighter, and gradually... a tall figure appeared in that ray of light...
Xie He felt that his eye sockets were slightly hot and sore... Probably the light was too dazzling, which made him have such an abnormal reaction.
After a long time, the light finally disappeared, and a familiar man appeared there.
On the familiar handsome face, the familiar deep black eyes looked at Xie He.
Xie He suddenly stood up and strode over. His movements were too fast and too hard, so that he directly hit Lu Ting against the wall! His hand grabbed Lu Ting's collar tightly, and it rattled so hard.
Lu Ting was in a daze for a moment, and seemed to finally wake up, he was back...
He actually came back.
Before he had time to open his mouth, he felt two fiery lips pressing against his. This kiss was so forceful, and he tried everything. There was tender and lingering love in his eyes, and he also tried his best to respond to this kiss.
Xie He spoke slowly, his voice was low and hoarse: "You can't hear my favorability prompt, can you?"
Lu Ting nodded, now Xie He is no longer the target of the raid.
Xie He raised the corners of his lips slightly, and suddenly approached Lu Ting's ear, with a faint smile in his voice, "Then I'll tell you."
"Ding, target Xie He favorability +1, current favorability is 100."
In this world, there is one person.
He walked through mountains of swords and seas of fire, and through hundreds of reincarnations, just to meet you again.
From then on, life and death are shared, and they will never leave.
